    I ordered my flags from Cornwall model boats in the UK. Cloth. Inexpensive and mail was cheap as well.

    It looks really nice and well built, congrats on a well done model. Question, where did you get you small Canadian flag from? I am looking for an Italian flag for my Venice water taxi. Cheers Ian

    That little black wire you see out the STBD side on deck, is the touch wire to turn on and off the nav lights.

    Yes very impressive instrument panel. Weโ€™d all like to know how you made it and the research you did to create it?

    I am also impressed with the choice of tight grain mahogany you have used for the trim work and attention to detail. The grain is in the proper alignment to the furniture being presented.

    What would be inside the cabinet console to the left of the gangway which would require ventilation slits?

    Does the glue on the aluminumโ€™s backing require any sealer after application?

    I used chrome plated looking pin stripe tape used on cars that I bought from an auto shop. It is about 3 mm wide and easy to apply. Cheers Ian

    Could show a sample of how to use the aluminum duct tape on a model please? How do you get it to not have kinks, fold lines and kept smooth.

    I have this auto repair exhaust tape. Is it what you call aluminum duct tape?
